The Wayfarer's Inn

"So, Ivid, you okay to continue now? Elmo is okay as you can see. We really need to move on, buddy." She pats his shoulder and looks around to judge their next options.

"Guys", Ahi says, "I would just like to make it very clear I've spent all my best healing powers for the moment. I have something more, but it's only minor healing. Don't do anything rash!"

Kherim nods and adds "I don't have much healing left in myself either. Let's just be careful."

So... what's up?

Eilkhan will go and explore the corridor Sol is looking down. Needless to say, she checks for traps and fun surprises this cursed place might have for them.

If Sol's in the front, Kherim will keep the rear with Ivid or Elmo. Ahi will go in the middle, although he thinks that they don't have the resources to survive another battle like the last one.

Hearing Ivid, Sol turns away from the corridor he has been standing sentinal on for a moment, to say
"All I have to spare is a blanket. You can use that if no one has a spare set of clothing..."

"I don't have clothes... But here..." His voice is calm almost to the point of disinterest in the events taking place!!! Still with some slight movements Gaderon passes over...

A Dagger Silvered,
a waterskin 1/2 full,
3 days of rations,
a Ring of Protection +3
AND
a Cloak of Displacement...

Gaderon drops them in a pile to the ground not looking to the others in any fashion. He is still watching the way forward quite intently! But glances down to thumb through his spellbook, serious thoughts crossing his face!

"That and a teleportation by me should keep you safe in town until we return and feel free to take my share of the spoils so far acquired to replace your own gear!!!"

Kherim walks towards Elmo first and hugs him.

"It's good to have you back, pal! Sorry about the clothes, eh..." he says, uncharacteristically grinning while taking a look at the warriors image of steel over bare skin. "Welcome!"

He then walks to Ivid and Gaderon.

"Well, things have been settled by now. Ivid, there's no use in keeping hard feelings towards Gaderon. He should have thought better, true, but let's at least rejoice that this wasn't a final death at least. We may die easily here, we have to remember that, so we have to keep a united front to avoid that the most we can."

"Gaderon, please, keep your wits about. I imagine you must be feeling guilty, but right now that is useful only to avoid further mistakes. We need your reasoning, and your clarity of mind. If you lose it, we may all lose more than just Elmo. I will be glad when someday I depart for Horus's company, but honestly, I'd rather have that day be as far in the future as possible. Cast the clouds away from your thought, and rejoice that Elmo is alive among us."

Kherim does not have any spare clothes either. Nor does Ahi.

Looking at Elmo's naked backside as they walk, Ahi suddenly thinks aloud: "perhaps we can find some drapery on the statues or so. Or some old vestments in some chest.

Acknowledging Kherim, Gaderon nods slightly...

"I feel guilt and perhaps I am being too over protective now after the fact? Still... There is an important issue to debate... It has to do with how Elmo feels about this!"

Gaderon after a small moment slowly looks to the others... Still showing little emotion...

"If he feels comfortable traveling on, that is fine... But I see little point however if he has such limited equipment left other than to comfort us for a short while... I regret putting him in such a situation, and I will be held to account for that in time but I do not see the wisdom in endangering him further until he feels he is ready..."

Gaderon then looks squarely at Elmo... His face firm and the words earnest...

"If he or Ivid can or cannot forgive me fine, I would not expect such to happen easy if at all! If they can work beside me still is another matter? But Elmo needs to decide and I have heard many voices but his own! He has just come back from death which is of course no small thing... If he wishes to continue then perhaps he should still teleport for a day back to town and think it over and resupply? If he wishes it I can easily prepare enough such spells to bring us both back to this forsaken place the next time I study... I do not doubt his courage or prowess, but I would not see anyone enter this place under prepared nor would I assume that they could easily continue after such! So I would hear it from him! What do you want Elmo?"

Gaderon watches Elmo and keeps the neutral look upon his face...
